Perfect day in Nicaragua! - This was a great way to explore Granada and the areas around in Nicaragua. My tour guide Nicole was amazing, she spoke great English and was able to answer all the questions I had about all the places we visited. There was so much to take in in one day, but you didn't feel rushed at any particular location. And they were very accommodating to any needs or questions I had. It was definitely an unforgettable day. I highly recommend!

Good Guides,Food and Views - This tour was amazing as our tour guides Nicole and Mary were very knowledgeable! The views were amazing: be prepared to walk, and climb stairs for the best pictures. The boat tour on lake Nicaragua was our favorite because the atmosphere was very calming . Furthermore our guides made sure we got to experience delicious cuisine. Would definitely book with this company again.

An Amazing Day Tour from Managua to Granada, Nicaragua - I recently took a day tour from Managua to Granada and it was incredible! We started with a visit to the beautiful Catedral de Granada, then wandered through the lively Main Plaza, soaking in the colonial charm. A peaceful boat ride through the Isletas de Granada followed, offering amazing views and a close-up look at the tiny islands scattered across Lake Nicaragua. After a tasty local lunch, we ended the day at the Mirador de Catarina, which offers stunning panoramic views of the Apoyo Lagoon - an absolute highlight. The tour was smooth, well-organized, and a perfect mix of culture and nature. Highly recommend!

A fantastic day trip to Granada and Masaya! Must visits in Nicaragua - Granada is historically one of Nicaragua's most important cities. It has a rich colonial heritage which can be seen in its architecture and structure. This private tour began when my guide, Tony, picked me up from my hotel at 10 am Tuesday morning and drove me about 1 hour to Granada. We spent a few hours exploring the historic city of Granada and visited many notable locations within the city such as the Immaculate Conception of Mary Cathedral Church, Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de la Merced, the Chocolate Museum, and more. After that, we went out and took a 1 hour an awesome boat tour of the islands in Lake Nicaragua. Once that boat tour was complete, Tony took me to have lunch at a fantastic lakeside restaurant in Granada before he drove me to the final stop of the day tour - the Mirador de Catarina lookout. This lookout spot is a site with local markets for shopping and a popular viewpoint that offers stunning panoramic views of Lake Apoyo, Granada, and Lake Nicaragua. After our last stop in Masaya, Tony started driving me back to my hotel in Managua and he had me back there by 6 pm. This was an awesome day tour and big shoutout to my guide Tony once more for leading me on this day tour, he did a great job leading me on my Leon & Volcano Cerro Negro Tour and he did the same great job on this one. Don’t hesitate to book this Granada & Masaya day tour when you’re in Managua, it was fantastic and I highly recommend it! - Nolan

Perfect tour of Granada! - The tour was perfect. We got to experience Granada, las Isletas, a very nice meal with a great view, and a beautiful sunset. Anthony was a great guide! His English was perfect, he was very knowledgeable about the history of Nicaragua and the sights we were visiting, and most importantly he was a lot of fun! Anthony was also very flexible and gave us time to experience all of the stops at our own pace. I highly recommend him and the tour!
